Chronic Irritation

Famous quotes containing the words chronic and/or irritation:

    Adder-faced singularity
    Espouses a nailed-up childhood,
    Skin-disease pardons
    Soft horror of living,
    A gabble is forgiven
    By chronic solitude.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    The Troubles are a pigmentation in our lives here, a constant irritation that detracts from real life. But life has to do with something else as well, and it’s the other things which are the more permanent and real.
    Brian Friel (b. 1929)
